This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar tracking technology when you access our website, applications, and services. We use cookies and similar technologies such as pixels, local storage, and web beacons (collectively referred to in this policy as “cookies”) to collect and use data as part of our RealPage Services (“Services”), as defined in our Privacy Policy, and which includes our websites, applications, services, communications, and website integrations or widgets.

What technologies are used?
| Type of technology | Description |
|---|---|
| Cookies |
A cookie is a small file placed onto your device that enables certain features and functionality. Any browser visiting our sites may receive cookies from us or cookies from third parties such as our customers, partners, or service providers. We or third parties may also place cookies in your browser when you visit non-RealPage sites that display ads or that host our plugins or integrations. We use two types of cookies: persistent cookies and session cookies. A persistent cookie lasts beyond the current session and is used for many purposes, such as recognizing you as an existing user, so it's easier to return to a RealPage website and interact with our Services without signing in again. Since a persistent cookie stays in your browser, it will be read by RealPage when you return to one of our sites or visit a third-party site that uses our Services. Session cookies last only as long as the duration of the visit or access to the website or Services. |
| Pixels | A pixel is a tiny image that may be embedded within web pages and emails, requiring a call (which provides device and visit information) to our servers in order for the pixel to be rendered in those web pages and emails. We use pixels to learn more about your interactions with email content or web content, such as whether you interacted with ads or posts. Pixels can also enable us and third parties to place cookies on your browser. |
| Local storage | Local storage enables a website or application to store information locally on your device. This is typically done to maintain your preferences or to improve website speed and performance. These technologies include Local Shared Objects (or "Flash cookies"). |

You can opt out of data collection or use by some of these analytics providers by visiting any of the following sites: Google Analytics (requires you to install a browser add-on), WebTrends, or Optimizely. |
